Product Description
Breastfeeding is one of the most important gifts you can give your Baby. Proper positioning is a key to successful Breastfeeding. Good latch-on can be achieved by having your baby somewhat elevated. But this is not always easy - many women experience stress & pain in their back & shoulders due to improper posture. A good Breastfeeding or Nursing Pillow provides back support so Mom does not hunch forward. Lactation Consultants also recommend a pillow that straps securely to Mom so that the pillow is not constantly shifting. Not all women are built the same so having a pillow that provides a custom fit is ideal. Easy on-off buckles, Easy to clean covers and Compact Size that fits in a diaper bag also help to foster ease of use & more successful Breastfeeding.

not quite as expected but very pleased April 3, 2008

I thought this was a cushioned pillow with an inflatable center. It was actually all inflatable with a thin cover. I didn't think it would be very durable. So far, it is very durable. It is also the perfect height and firm to support the babies. The back support helps alot - no complaints there at all. It takes 2 hands to unbuckle but that may just be me. The size is generous enough to hold my twins - with my support of course; it easily holds one baby at a time as well.
So much better than boppy! October 29, 2007

I had chronic back pain while using the boppy that disappeared when I started using the Viva! pillow. I love the back support. I also like the fact that it's inflatable so can travel. Definitely recommend if you are breast feeding.
Saved my back and wrists! April 23, 2007

I started using this pillow after 4 weeks of rather uncomfortable seating positions and painful breast-feeding--my baby kept falling into the holes of our sofa/cushions and my arms and wrists were really aching from holding her--the first time I used this pillow was like heaven! It's firm, hygienic, offers great back support, and when used with a low nursing stool under one's feet, it's really great! I get it on and off really quickly and recommend it highly! Every breast-feeding mother needs such a pillow unless they always nurse lying on a bed...
